Here's my story of the day. I did a clean installation of windows XP Pro yesterday, then noticed that no sound is coming out of my speakers...so I checked the device manager...-->device working -->no irq conflicts... so I installed the newest drivers (11/2/2001, 3509.2.0.0)...and still no sound...then I uninstalled everything that has to do with sound blaster (including the hidden devices that XP conveniently hides from you..) and reboot to have XP detect and install the drivers again (then another reboot..) but I still don't have sound coming out of my speakers. I've tested the speakers on another computer and they're fine...so something freaky is going on here...
on a side note, you know how Windows play a "ding" sound whenever you adjust the volume by clicking on the "Volume icon" in task bar and sliding the volume level up and down? Well whenever I try that, my PC speaker gives off a sound..(it was a shocker cuz I haven't heard anything from the PC speakers since...DOS)
Has anyone had this at some point and got it fixed?? Or having I once again encountered the freakiest problems that doesn't make sense...this is definitely one wacky eXPerience...
Any help will be deeply appreciated!! Thanks.
